Foreword
To many young people today, Mrs. Ellen G. White has become like a character out of a myth or legend. They hear adults constantly quote from her books and tell about the important things she did for the Seventh-day Adventist Church. In their denominational history books they see photographs of her surrounded by stern-looking, old-fashioned-appearing people. As a result, modern young people do not think of her as a real person whom they would enjoy knowing and being with.AOT 8.1
Angel Over Her Tent presents Mrs. White as a person all youth would enjoy knowing. We share the loneliness of her separation from her boys during her trips in the service of the church, her concern for people in desperate need of food and help, her quiet sense of humor, her enjoyment of Sabbath afternoon picnics. The reader watches as she struggles with danger and visits faraway places. This book will give every young person a new insight into Mrs. White’s life.AOT 8.2
In addition to incidents from Mrs. White’s life, Angel Over Her Tent tells the amazing story of how a dove and The Great Controversy converted a village, and how a vision of a man with five of Mrs. White’s books that were really nine led a Kalahari bushman across a trackless desert to the gospel.AOT 8.3
D. A. Delafield, the author of several books for young people, is associate secretary of the Ellen G. White Estate. Gerald Wheeler is a book editor at Southern Publishing Association.AOT 8.4
